Guesthouse Muntean

Guesthouse Muntean

Guesthouse Muntean is set in one of Sighetu Marmatiei's traditional wooden house, offering guests an authentic taste of Romanian home life.

An intricately carved gate leads you up to the house, where we offer comfortable accommodation in well-appointed private rooms with modern bathrooms.

Sighetu Marmatiei is an important cultural centre in Romania, famous for its preservation of traditional ways. The town has become popular with tourists, who learn about local history and customs at the Ethnography and Folk Art Museum, which includes an open-air museum village.

The town also hosts a famous traditional winter festival each year, held on the 27th December.

Enjoy hiking through the surrounding hillside, or ride a horse-drawn cart or sleigh through orchards and meadows. Visit local artisans glass blowing or weaving, or take a dip in the Iza River.

Facilities at Guesthouse Muntean include a large courtyard with parking, laundry services at bicycle hire. We speak English and French and offer transfers from Sighet or Baia Mare railway stations as well as guided tours of the Marmures region.

Nearby highlights include the Merry Cemetery in Sapanta, the wooden churches of the Iza and Mara valleys and the Barsana Monastery, as well as the Museum of Arrested Thought, set in a former prison camp.
